For government schools we show Local Enrolment Area as Yes, No, or No data where official catchment data exists. Non-government schools show N/A (does not apply).

Results are a first-pass match — always confirm enrolment with the school and the relevant education department.

Try an example: Martin Place, Sydney NSW (Year 7) · 1 Swanston St, Melbourne VIC (Year 7) · 123 Queen St, Brisbane QLD (Year 1) · 1 St Georges Tce, Perth WA (Year 7) · 1 Smith St, Darwin NT (Year 1)

Perth and Darwin examples still list nearby schools; government Local Enrolment Area stays No data (not No) until official catchment polygons load. Catchment FAQ
